What started as a frustration on site has become a global product. 

PETERBOROUGH, England, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — EV Blocks is proud to share that founder Trevor Palmer has been named Global Entrepreneur of the Year 2025 at The Allica Bank British Entrepreneur Awards.

 

The story began with Trevor standing on muddy ground, wrestling with shuttering and waiting for concrete to set. He kept asking the same question installers still ask today: 

Why are we building the future of EV charging with processes that slow us down? 

That moment sparked an idea: a faster, cleaner, future-proof foundation for EV charger every time. From a rough sketch to a fully engineered system, that idea became EV Blocks.

Today it’s helping standardise installations across the UK, Australia, North America and France. 

Trevor said:
“I didn’t set out to win awards. I just wanted to fix a problem everyone on site was dealing with. The fact EV Blocks is now used around the world…that’s thanks to the installers, partners and clients who backed the idea early. This award is for them.”

EV Blocks is now helping the industry build more consistently and reliably, even in challenging weather, supporting the rapid global expansion of EV charging networks.

Trevor’s award marks a milestone for the business and the wider EV infrastructure community. It shows what’s possible when a practical problem meets a simple scalable solution.  

The journey started on site.
It’s now a global standard.
And we’re only just getting started.

By technology, alkaline electrolysis is expected to dominate the global market throughout the forecast period.

Alkaline electrolysis is the major segment of the green hydrogen market in terms of value, as it is the most technologically advanced, cost-efficient, and widely utilized electrolyzer technology globally. Alkaline systems have been used in industrial hydrogen production for over two decades, yielding an excellent reliability record and a robust supply chain. They are based on the use of low-cost electrolytes, such as potassium or sodium hydroxide, and do not require the use of costly precious metals like platinum or iridium, which consequently significantly reduces the capital expenditure of such technologies.

Alkaline electrolyzers also feature long operational lifetimes, high operational stability, and continuous operation at large scales, all of which make them suitable for utility-scale green hydrogen production projects. Alkaline systems have the largest share of installed electrolyzer capacity globally, estimated at over 50% of total deployments, due to their economic advantages and technical robustness. With the commissioning of new multi-megawatt and gigawatt-scale plants, alkaline electrolysis remains the leading technology in attracting market investments and is the most valuable. 

By renewable source, wind energy is expected to dominate the global green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

The wind energy market is the largest one in the global green hydrogen sector, with the highest valuation. The primary reason is that it is the most scalable and cost-effective method for reducing the large volume of emissions, as well as being an energy-dense renewable power source for hydrogen production. The wind, especially offshore wind, is said to have very high capacity factors, which are frequently above 40% to 50%. This ensures a stable and continuous electricity supply to the electrolyzers, thereby increasing hydrogen output and reducing production costs. Off the grid, large onshore and offshore wind farms can be integrated directly with multi-megawatt and gigawatt electrolyzer systems, thus making them ideal for industrial, export, and fuel production hubs. The largest green hydrogen projects are typically located in wind-rich areas, where vast land or ocean availability enables significant expansion of renewable capacity. Furthermore, the drop in wind electricity prices, the progress in turbine technology, and government support in the wind market provide an attractive wind-to-hydrogen scenario that invites increasing investments. Predictably, all these aspects combined will sustain the wind energy sector as the major contributor to green hydrogen production during the forecast period. 

The mobility segment by end-use industry is expected to dominate the global green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

During the forecast period, the end-use mobility sector is projected to be the major contributor to the overall green hydrogen market, both in terms of monetary and physical size, due to the rapid surge in hydrogen-powered vehicle adoption. Among the mobility sectors, long-distance hydrogen is expected to lead, providing high energy density, fast refueling, and a wide operating range, which surpasses that of battery-electric solutions, which are not suitable for large or continuous-duty fleets. The global hydrogen corridors, zero-emission mandates, and large-scale deployment programs are the primary areas where countries promoting hydrogen mobility aim to serve as the main means of decarbonizing freight and public transport. The likes of Toyota, Hyundai, Alstom, and other leading maritime operators are not only strengthening their fuel cell and hydrogen-based solutions but also creating a strong market pull through their demand. With the development of refueling infrastructure and the increasing acceptance of hydrogen by fleet operators for commercial logistics, the mobility sector is poised to become the largest user of green hydrogen in terms of both total consumption volume and overall market value. 

North America is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

During the projected period, North America is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region in the green hydrogen market, driven by strong policy support, rapid project development, and substantial investments from both public and private sectors. The US, via the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), has been able to position itself globally in clean hydrogen production as it provides up to USD 3 per kilogram for low-carbon hydrogen as production tax credits, which is one of the most generous incentives in the world and hence significantly speeds up project economics for green hydrogen developers. Moreover, the U.S. Department of Energy has allocated approximately USD 7–8 billion for the establishment of several Regional Hydrogen Hubs, creating integrated hydrogen ecosystems for production, storage, transport, and end-use in industries such as mobility, chemicals, and power. The large-scale renewable resources in North America, including excellent wind and solar corridors, further support the cost-effective option of electrolysis. Canada is also moving forward with national hydrogen strategies and export-oriented projects, particularly those focused on green ammonia. With strong regulatory support, abundant renewable resources, and increasing industry adoption, North America is likely to witness the most significant deployment of green hydrogen over the next decade.

Study Findings May Provide Key Insight into Parkinson’s Disease

NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The brain-chemical surge that comes with running may bolster coordination and speed in the old and young alike, a new study of middle-aged mice shows. Such physical activity may help restore ease of movement and agility, which often decline as humans and animals get older, the study authors said.

Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the investigation explored how aerobic exercise can boost the release of dopamine, a brain chemical involved in movement, reward, and memory. The team built upon its earlier work, which revealed that young (10-week-old) male rodents had a lasting increase in dopamine release after voluntarily running on an exercise wheel for 30 days. The new findings showed that 12-month-old male mice — the equivalent of humans in their 50s — experienced the same or greater rises in the chemical.

In addition, the middle-aged runners could more swiftly and agilely climb down a pole or dash around an open arena than animals of the same age that did not have access to a functioning wheel. The study authors note that the rodents’ grip strength did not change after their month of exercise, suggesting that the improvements resulted solely from enhanced coordination rather than muscle power.

“Our findings make clear that the impact of exercise on brain health and mobility is not exclusive to the young,” said study senior author Margaret Rice, PhD. “By getting enough physical activity, we can still heighten dopamine release to help us move faster and more easily,” added Rice, a professor in the Departments of Neurosurgery and Neuroscience at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

Experts have long understood the importance of aerobic exercise (activities that boost breathing and heart rate, such as swimming, cycling, and dancing). Such workouts, past research showed, drive the release of dopamine and other chemicals that are important for brain health. However, how the underlying mechanisms work in an aging brain and body had until now been unclear, says Rice, who notes that the brain cells (neurons) that produce dopamine gradually decline in older adults.

The new study, publishing online Dec. 9 in the journal npj Parkinson’s Disease, is believed to be the first to uncover a link between dopamine release from exercise and improved motor performance in aging mice of both sexes, according to the authors. They solely examined young males in their past research.

According to Rice, the findings may provide important insight into therapeutic approaches for Parkinson’s disease, a brain disorder in which dopamine-producing neurons can break down, leading to tremors, slow movement, and poor balance, among other concerns. Physical activity has long been observed to help ease patients’ symptoms.

“These results provide neurochemical evidence for why exercise improves everything from memory to movement to mood, all of which are affected in people with Parkinson’s disease,” said Rice.

Based on these findings, Rice says the research team next plans to repeat the study in mice genetically engineered to serve as models for the neurodegenerative disorder.

Rice cautions that future studies of humans will be required to fully understand how dopamine release prompted by exercise may impact Parkinson’s disease.

For the investigation, two-dozen mice were provided with unlimited access to either a freely rotating wheel or a locked one. After a month, the mice were examined in a variety of athletic tasks to test their mobility, coordination, and muscle strength. The research team then compared the performance of the runners with that of the non-runners. Next, the team measured dopamine release in brain slices from the same mice, collected from the striatum, a region that plays a key role in movement and motivation.

The findings revealed that mice in the exercise group had 50% higher dopamine release than their sedentary counterparts. Notably, while females ran twice as much as the males did, they saw equivalent boosts both in the hormone and in their motor performance. According to the authors, this suggests that a certain amount of exercise is sufficient to bolster dopamine and, once this is achieved, further elevation does not occur.

Funding for the study was provided by National Institutes of Health grants R01NS135884 and U19NS107616. More study funding was provided by the Marlene and Paolo Fresco Institute for Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders and the Parkinson’s Foundation.

Guendalina Bastioli, PhD, a former postdoctoral fellow at NYU Langone Health, is the study lead author. She is now at Vita-Salute San Raffaele University.

Other NYU Langone researchers involved in the study are Maria Mancini, PhD; Jyotiben Patel, PhD; Begoña Gamallo-Lana, PhD; Jennifer Arnold, PhD; and Adam Mar, PhD.
